WASHINGTON, Feb 13 (Reuters) - Officials from China,
India, Saudi Arabia and Group of Seven wealthy nations will
participate in a first virtual meeting of a new sovereign debt
roundtable on Friday, three sources familiar with the plans said
on Monday.
The roundtable will also include officials from countries
that have requested debt treatments under the Group of 20 common
framework - Ethiopia, Zambia and Ghana - as well as
middle-income countries such as Singapore, Suriname and Ecuador,
which have faced their own debt crises, the sources said.
The meeting will be co-chaired by the International Monetary
Fund, World Bank and India, the current leader of the Group of
20 finance officials, and comes a week before G20 finance
officials are due to gather in Bangalore, India from Feb. 23-25,
with an in-person meeting of the roundtable expected on Feb. 25.
